    07 Cunliffe 1686 13/11/09 13:48 Page 161 ALBERT RECKITT ARCHAEOLOGICAL LECTURE Continuity and Change in a Wessex Landscape BARRY CUNLIFFE Fellow of the Academy THE WESSEX LANDSCAPE with which we are concerned is an area of some 450 sq km of chalkland situated in the centre of the chalk uplands of southern Britain (Fig. 1). Its central position gives it a special character. It is, above all, a route node where the east–west ridgeways from the North Downs, the South Downs, Cranborne Chase and the Marlborough Downs converge with the north–south river routes, the Avon and the Test, which provide access, through the forests and heathlands of the Hampshire Basin, to the waters of the Solent beyond. But there is an ambivalence about the region. While open to influences from all direc- tions, this very openness endowed it with a strategic significance well understood by those who, in the past, wished to control the movements of peoples and commodities. As we will argue below, the region became a frontier zone for much of the latter part of the first millennium BC, dividing east from west. This block of downland was chosen for detailed study partly because of its commanding position in the landscape of central southern Britain but also because previous archaeological activity has provided an exten- sive database invaluable in developing a detailed research strategy. Most notable among the earlier work were the pre-war excavations of the Cunningtons and J. F. S. Stone focusing on Bronze Age and Iron Age settlements in eastern Wiltshire and the campaign of hillfort excavations Read at the Academy 23 October 2008.

AND DERBY 1906 [All Rights Reserved} TO THE MOST NOBLE The Duke of Wellington, k.g. THIS BOOK IS DEDICATED BY HIS GRACE'S KIND PERMISSION PREFACE may claim in a certain sense to be HAMPSHIREthe premier county of England, since though not quite so ancient a kingdom as Kent or Sussex, it " is, as Grant Allen calls it, the real original nucleus of the British Empire." It is also one of the most interesting of the counties, from the importance in early English history of its charming capital, the architectural value of its Cathedral and three of its other churches, its beautiful combinations of woodland and sea, its possession of more genuine forest than all the rest of England put together, and its chief place in the naval position of England, owing to the two great harbours afforded by its fortunate coast-line. To an editor of Memorials of Old Hampshire the first difficulty, therefore, is clearly of selection. It would not be difficult to imagine another volume of the present size made up only of those subjects that—for one reason or another—I have been obliged to pass over.

  • Hampshire Barrows
    346 HAMPSHIRE FIELD CLUB HAMPSHIRE BARROWS. By L. V. GRINSELL. PARTS I AND II.—ADDENDA AND CORRIGENDA. PART I. On p. 30 I stated that a list of field names indicating the possible former existence of barrows would be included in a future instalment of this paper. In view of the uncertainties of the times I have decided to complete this paper by the present instalment, and in order to save space the list of field names is omitted ; in any case most of them are given in Dr. Grundy's papers on Hants charters (Archaeol. Journal, Vols. 78, 81, 83, 84). PART II. 30 N.E. Grateley Disc-barrow (p. 217). This appears to be the barrow in which bones were recently found (Hants P.C., XIV, p. 270). 59 N.E. Old Winchester Hill (West). On p. 229, the quarter-sheet was given in error as 56 N.E. instead of 59 N.E. The site is very important and similar to that at Rockbourne on 54 N.W. (Fig. 4c). 80 N.W. Setley Plain Disc-barrows. I forgot to state that an account with excellent plans appeared in Sumner, New Forest, pp. 80 ff. and Plan XXII. Part HI. A List of Hampshire Bowl-Barrows. Introduction. The arrangement of the following list is based on the 6in. O.S. quarter-sheets arranged numerically. An asterisk (*) following the name of the parish denotes that the barrow is not marked on the latest edition of 6in. O.S. map prior to 1938. The finder of such a barrow is noted in the ' Other Details ' column thus :— O.G.S.C.= Mr.

  • LCT10 Open Chalklands
    LCT10 Open Chalklands General Description The Open Chalklands landscape character type is a large scale arable landscape, characteristic of the most extensively farmed chalkland areas, where the chalk geology is generally not masked by the deposit of Clay with Flints. The hedgerow structure is fragmented and commonly replaced by fences, adding to the open landscape character. A limited number of small hedged pasture fields are found adjacent settlements and farmsteads. Blocks or belts of trees occasionally break up this open landscape, but are infrequent with isolated woodlands often found adjacent to farmsteads. Small streams or winter bournes divide the type but generally it is noted for its dry valleys. The settlement pattern is scattered and dominated by large farms. There is an occasional large house with parkland found sited within a dry valley. A pattern of right angled roads, often running straight for considerable distances and with wide verges, is typical of the Open Chalklands landscape type. Location Open Chalklands are located within the central area of the Test Valley, mainly north of Broughton Down and around the southern edge of Andover. These Test Valley Landscape Character Assessment 2004 (updated 2018) LCT10: 1 areas are divided by the River Test and its tributaries and the winterbourne valleys. Within the Test Valley Borough there are 7 Landscape Character Areas as follows: LCA10A East Dean Chalk Downland LCA10B King’s Sombourne Chalk Downland LCA10C Thruxton and Danebury Chalk Downland LCA10D Leckford and Chilbolton Downs LCA10E Drayton Chalk Downland LCA10F Andover Chalk Downland LCA10G Cholderton Downs Physical Influences Geology and soils: Chalk with loamy and clayey soils.
